Posted project update #5Record mastered
Post CommentHello everyone!
I am happy to report the record has been fully mixed and mastered! Scott Hull of Masterdisc did an AMAZING job, the band and I are all thrilled with the result, so I am very grateful! It's a thick, lush wall of delicious sound and I can't wait for you to hear it. As we speak the artwork is now being finished by the wonderful David Croy and the CD release date is soon to be announced.
Thank you again for your support and your patience- it's been a wonderful 8 months of working on this record, and I'm really proud of it.
More soon,
Hildegunn -

Posted project update #4Tracking almost finished!
Hello everyone,
January was such an exciting month, and we are almost done with all the tracking for the record. We started January 2nd and 3rd at Stratosphere Studios with drums and percussion. Thanks to Ruddy, the amazing sound engineer, we got amazing sounds and had a blast laying down all the 11 tracks for the record.
The same week David Cook overdubbed Rhodes and acoustic piano at Atlantic studios in Dumbo- Brooklyn and Second Story studios in Chinatown. Also Keita dazzled us with percussion overdubs at Atlantic Studios.
The following week it was Bob and Michael's turn to do guitars and bass layers and finally we did strings a few days later. I have just finished the bulk of my vocals and stlll have some background vocals to record. The tracks already sounds amazing and I am so grateful to the band and to the producer- Michael League for all their hard work, input and passion to the project.The music is lush, thick and dynamic- I'm so excited for you all to hear the results.
More updates to come as we move into the mixing process. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for supporting!
All the best,
Hildegunn
